Trade and Free Agency Thread - 2022 - Off-season

[acrobaticgoalie]

Samsonov has been disappointing thus far in his career but that's an interesting option with some potential upside. Pretty well all the goalie options this year have question marks but I think if it's going to be a risk no matter what, I think I would like to go cheaper in a tandem and save some cap for the trade dealine to add depth or go for someone who isn't available now.

If we acquire Murray @50% with a sweetener, I still prefer a tandem of

Blackwood
Murray

 

[ULF_55]

Is it closer now or further away.

If a train leaves Ottawa going 37 KPH, and an Uber leaves Toronto going 17KPH at what time do they exchange offers?

 

[Leaf Rocket]

Sam steel
Jonathan dahlen
Colin white

Could be interesting buy low player

I like the idea of the first two not sure about white unless absolutely minimum .

 

[SprDaVE]

Would a player have come back to Ottawa anyways? Thought they were just going to pay us for the contract

The early speculation was Holl or Kerfoot for salary purposes, or maybe a Marlies contract, but sounds like it'll just be a draft pick or something.

Interesting. Very anxious it could be an insane deal or make me want to off myself that's what makes it exciting lol

 

[Warden of the North]

I'm going to hate this return

 

[Leaf Rocket]

Not even Bruce knows...

Bruce = Steve Simmons of Ottawa...I genuinely...I dont want to say hate but STRONGLY dislike that gentleman.

either way im not getting work done. Smh. Why do I do this?

 

[Gallagbi]

Have any insiders referenced a sweetener or just here?

You are setting the precedent...say the opposite...you are gonna love it...

Brother, you won't find many Sens fans that disagree with you

Haha well good distraction at least

 

[SprDaVE]

Ehhh not sure about that, either way, he's pretty much the Sens insider for this stuff though.

 

[Gilles Meloche]

Where else can Samsonov go where he would have a chance to be a 1A??

Toronto
Edmonton
Buffalo
Chicago

??

Boo boo? I thought he was more clown-like than despised like Simmons

it's stupidly addicting for the team

Have any insiders referenced a sweetener or just here?

I think some

 

[jaric1862]

Samsonov > Murray.

 

[Sun God Nika]

Not even Bruce knows...

Bruce contributed nothing ….

What does “not sure if a player is coming back to Ottawa” mean? Like is it gonna happen or not lol

 

[rocketman588]

I would assume it's something like

Murray (50%) a two and or a three or a two and a three or something. Maybe Connor Brown

I would be pleased if we got a 2023 first
An A+ prospect
We're somehow getting them to pay the third team in ( which is the biggest pie in the sky thought imo)

 

[Smif]

I'm going to hate this return

I'm prepared to be underwhelmed.

There are...reasons I'll say on why he became an insider...but yea he's special that's for sure lmao

I'm prepared to be underwhelmed.

what about just whelmed.

 

[Steven1562]

What could we possibly get back in the Murray deal? Future picks or players to win now?

 

[Kurtz]

Samsonov > Murray.

What makes you say that?

If we knew, we wouldn't be speculating.
